  • Do I need a macro?
    • People frequently ask if they need a macro if they are using a GUI they built in Eclipse.
    • The answer is NO, you do not need a macro.
      • For more details please see the NeXtMidas User's Guide.
      • Also check out the BEANDEMO example in the UCL option tree.
    • In most cases you will find that using a macro is significantly easier (especailly if you need to use pipes).
